While we're still not sold on the utility of a physical keyboard in this day and age, the sensible cuts TCL has made to the BlackBerry Key2 LE make it a much more attractive proposition - particularly for security-conscious businesses.

All in all, the KEY2 LE makes sense for a very small nice, but BlackBerry has found a way to wiggle in and snuggle into many niches over the years, so whilst I can't see it yet, When the successor eventually comes out next year, I'll probably be kicking myself over this paragraph.

This phone is for people who want a physical keyboard, some extra work tools, and BlackBerry's software. If you consume lots of media (particularly video), go with a normal, slate-style device. I like the Key2 LE's character, but it's strictly for keyboard die-hards.

Select 'Pay Monthly' if you're looking to get the BlackBerry Key2 LE as part of a monthly contract with minutes, data and texts. Alternatively, choose 'No Contract' if you prefer to buy the BlackBerry Key2 LE SIM Free or on Pay as You Go.

Finding the perfect deal is easy. Just use the sliders to filter tariffs for minutes, data, monthly cost and upfront cost. You can also filter by network and retailer to find the best BlackBerry Key2 LE deal for you!

How HandsetExpert Works: We don't run ads on the site, or charge users to use the site. The site is funded using commission links, where we may receive a commission if a phone or tariff is purchased via HandsetExpert. Our editorial, phone scoring and recommendation system and deal-finding algorithms are not affected by this; we are fiercely committed to providing unbiased, independent information.

Important notes

We aim to compare as many tariffs in the marketplace from the UK as possible. However, we do not include every package (e.g. legacy tariffs no longer available, or tariffs only available to existing/specific customers), nor do we detail every aspect of every tariff (e.g. international out of bundle rates, on-network minutes, etc).

SIM only deals are limited to 30-day and 12-month plans, excluding shorter plans and Pay As You Go rates.

For tariffs which offer "unlimited" allowances, there may be times where traffic management or fair usage policies apply.

Additional charges for payment methods other than direct debit and for itemised/paper billing may apply.

Data only SIM cards, mobile broadband packages, and pay monthly tablets are currently not included in the comparison.

Out of bundle charges are not included in the calculation of Average Monthly Cost.

Contracts may not be available for some phone models in all colours and/or sizes, and a small number may only be available either as a pay monthly contract or a contract free handset, but not both.
